Diary of the journey on the path least traveled..just letting the heart do the talking while the fingers do the walking while being different, being me… 🙂
Note; AI is not used here on the path under any circumstances!.. 🙂
Hello Diary,
Sitting here with a cup of tea, a cold drizzly morning, and thought I would do something different today.. in the past I have posted about my thoughts and my adventures and dreams, have seen all the declared holidays and days of remembrance, but saw very little about the children of this world..soooooooooooo, I thought I would call today "Children's Day" (as it is every day here on the path) and dedicate this blog to them, of all ages, beliefs, race, gender, etc. ( I try to avoid using labels here) .. 🙂
Hopefully to let the children of the world be aware that while this ole born again hippie is venturing down the path, following his dreams, he has not forgotten them and doing what he can, living life in such a manner as to help them follow their dreams…. 🙂
Unfortunately, because of the actions of closed minded elements of today's world societies, the children have suffered, their dreams put on hold and for some, their life and dreams in this mortal world has come to a tragic end.. "What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or in the holy name of liberty or democracy?" ( Mahatma Gandhi)…. 🙂
Trying to view the world through the eyes of a child/young person, a poem I call Through the eyes of a child…
I woke up this morning in a rush
Eagerly to start the day,
Hopefully to learn about the world
Maybe even have time to play.
I have many, many friends
Each one somewhat different than me,
But none of us mind at all
We believe it were meant to be.
Decided to check in with my friends
Before Mom gave the breakfast call,
So with anxious hands I started my little tablet
Were going to say hello to one and all.
My smile and joy were soon gone
As sadness did take its place,
My vision become blurry
A tear, ventured down my face.
I read a text in my inbox
With conflict, some of my friends did die,
With trembling lips I looked to the horizon
With heavy heart asked the question "WHY?".
Just children wanting to live their dream,
Why is that so very wrong,
Their dream were taken away
So someone could prove they're strong.
You know, my heart will mend
For their memory lives in my heart,
And one day, together, we will play again
Not even distance will keep us apart.
I finish this with a smile on my face
For I know one day we'll meet again,
And again, together we will follow our dreams
For it will be a new beginning, not the end.
(Larry "Dutch" Woller)
They will not be forgotten… 🙂

However together, using today's technology guided by an open mind and wisdom, with understanding and in a peaceful manner, we can make this a better world, and future, for the children because…. "Change will not come if we wait for some other person, or if we wait for some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek." (Barack Obama)… 🙂
Well, I had better close for now… instead of sitting here rambling, will get another cup of tea and use the technology to help others to hopefully make this ole world a better place for everyone.. "The life I touch for good or ill will touch another life, and that in turn another, until who knows where the trembling stops or in what far place my touch will be felt. " (Friedrich Buechner)…. but I shall return again one day, Fate be willin' and the creeks don't rise….
Hope life is all that you wish for it to be, your path is paved with peace, love and happiness and until we meet again….
May flowers always line your path
and sunshine light your way,
May songbirds serenade your
every step along the way,
May a rainbow run beside you
in a sky that's always blue,
And may happiness fill your heart
each day your whole life through.
May the sun shine all day long
Everything go right, nothing go wrong
May those you love bring love back to you
And may all the wishes you wish come true
(Irish Saying)
The gates are open and the ole peace train is taking on passengers, all aboard that's getting on board… 🙂
